Building upon the market and critical success of Panasonic's previous Plasma models, the PZ850 series includes a number of step-up features that will further strengthen Panasonic's leadership position.Customer Review: THE BEST HDTV
I bought this TV at Best Buy and paid quite a bit more for it than what you see here. I am thrilled with this TV and is quite a bargain on Amazon. I have cable and a DVD with HDMI and it was a snap to connect and start watching from the get-go. It is a beautiful TV, and now I am addicted to the larger size widescreen HDTV's. The 800 series of this TV is excellent, and has the best sound ever. No need for a home theatre, DVD and Blu Ray plays BEAUTIFULLY. I bought the expensive calibration service which I think was a waste of money, as the TV is easy to adjust right out of the box. I have my own perferences, and after it was calibrated, I never even used the Custom setting (that is where they put the "calibrated" settings) and went back to my own "Standard" settings after the calibration. I turned off the NR setting, put the black level to "light" and turned off the C.A.T.S. settings on the "Picture" menu. Keeping the black level to "light" and turning off C.A.T.S setting makes a big difference in the clarity of the picture, and makes the adjustment of brightness and contrast more accurate. It takes a bit of fussing, but you can get a perfect picture, all by yourself. I love this TV, and plan to buy a 800 series in the 50 inch, also. Both these series are pretty future proof, and will probably be the last TV's I buy. I have read that keeping the Contrast and Brightness down to 50 for about 30 days before revving it up any higher will "prime" the TV and actually make it last longer. The 800 series of the Panasonic Plasma has my highest recommendation. P.S. Be aware that there is some reflection issues with the larger TV, just because they are able to reflect things like lamps over a broader space. This is the nature of big screen TV's I am afraid. However, I have a Sony LCD (the best) and I still prefer the Plasma..far better picture.
If you've decided to purchase a dvd player your visit to the shop may be accompanied with some difficulties especially if you don't know exactly what features and benefits you are looking for. In order to protect you from getting lost among numerous brands and models available nowadays in the market I've provided this article as a small guide for a dvd player buyer.
Certainly, two main demands to the device are meeting all your personal needs and affordable price. And, of course, your needs depend on several parameters, for instance, the size of your TV screen. Basically, if it is 27-inch or less than worthy picture can be provided by practically any dvd player. Another important option is the quality of decoding and digital to analog conversion. Finally, your demands may be specific if you are going to make your new dvd player a part of home theater system. So, keeping in mind all the aforementioned details let's check some models which in my personal opinion are an ideal combination of price and quality.
Firstly, pay attention to Sony DVP-NS57P/B dvd player. Its main advantages besides of small price are selectable progressive-scan playback, special precision drive system which improves the player's ability to play damaged discs and a set of audio/video outputs. The player is elegant and simple in control, so it can be considered a nice one for average users. Still it is not a multi regional player and it doesn't support SVideo connection. That's why if you have an opportunity to spend $60 or above on the dvd player there is a better choice for you, for example, Pioneer DV-400V.
What makes a real difference between this devices? Pioneer DV-400V supports all the dvd and cd formats including burned dvd+ disks. Moreover, it is a divx dvd player with usb port which allows to play audio and divx encoded video through usb input. Interpolated upscaling system improves the quality of picture and sharpness. A wide range of video and audio adjustments are available for the player. The setup process is very simplified using easy to follow on-screen directions. All in all, if you are looking for a reasonably priced upscaling pioneer dv dvd player, you've found it.
